Talk:Armstrong Whitworth Scimitar

Specification F7/30
Just a point about the reversion of my edit about the Scimitar, the Scimitar competed against the Vickers Jockey, Hawker High Speed Hawk, and Gloster Gladiator, Supermarine 224 for F7/30 and lost to the Gladiator. The A.W.16 was built against F9/26 to replace the Armstrong Whitworth Siskin and Gloster Gamecock. That is what it says in The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Aircraft. The A.W.16 first flew in 1930, the Scimitar in 1933 while the Gladiator did not fly until 1934 for the F7/30 competition!. Obviously our references contradict - just want to get it right anybody got any other references? MilborneOne 18:32, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
